9/19 Cup of Coffee: Greenville's season came to an end on Friday when the Drive fell to Lakewood, 5-1, as the BlueClaws took the South Atlantic League Championship, three games to one. Fabian Williamson started and took the loss. He went 4 innings, giving up 4 runs, 3 of which were earned, on 7 hits and a walk. The Drive scored their only run in the bottom of the 7th when Mitch Dening singled with two out and scored on Kade Keowen's double to left center. Dening had 2 hits in the game as did Ryan Lavarnway. The usual steady defense of the Drive was absent, as the team committed 3 errors in the game, two of them coming in the top of the 3rd inning, allowing the BlueClaws to score twice.

The Coffee pot has been drained, but we'll have a fresh one on when the Arizona Fall League kicks off in October. Until then, all the best.

Player of the Night:Mitch Dening, who had 2 hits in the game and scored the Drive's only run.
